Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
Sometimes the Dumb is strong with me. I just realized that I have not linked to several of Murphy’s prior border posts and that will give you a much better idea of his adventures.
In order of appearance:
Looks like someone didn’t pay their cartel tax
Still here…and happy Thanksgiving.
And if you are using a News/Blog reader, go ahead and include him in your daily routine.
It’s not just us, Border Patrol and Illegals down here. As remote as it is, there are several other players on the gameboard. Each of them crosses our path more days than not and considers themselves the good guys here. In reality, they’re all pains in the ass that we could better do without.
I will continue linking to Murphy’s blog to keep you guys breast on what is happening down at the border and we are not hearing about.
Go read. 🙂
It is still my belief that Rick Scott chose to ignore Gun Owners when he signed SB7026 and paid the price in the elections by having to go to manual recount and to only win by 10,033 votes.
There were 8,318,824 people casting ballots in the state of Florida but only 8,188,977 cast a vote for senator. That’s 129,847 people who selected neither and refused to vote for the office. How many of those non-votes were from gun owners pissed off at him and refused to congratulate bad behavior? For argument’s sake let’s say half of them and round it up to 65,000 people. That added to Scott’s result would have put the difference between candidates to 0.70%, above the Automatic Recount mandate and the Margin of Cheating.
Of course, I am just speculating. We will never know for sure how many Florida Gun Owners did not vote for Scott and for what reasons, but it would behoove state politicians to consider that courting the gun vote with good deeds is the best way to remain in power. Bloomberg’s money seems to be cursed and the recipients end up with a fast political death.
J Kb. did a nice work analyzing the anti-gun measures so I am not going over them again. However it is time we realize we are in trouble: We are being outspent and our strategies are being outsmart because we simply have not changed them and it is time to do so.
I am not saying that we dump what we have been doing till now, but we need to add fresh strategies and take the fight to the enemy. We also must understand that the enemy is not just the Gun Control Department of the Liberal/Progressive Movement, but it is the whole package. With that in mind, it is time to play dirty and take the fight to them so this is what I propose:
THE RESTORATION OF ALL CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS FOR NON-VIOLENT FELONS.
Obviously they will initially go crazy and say no, which is when you grab them by the short and curlies. Imagine them trying to defend their position implying that some parts of the Bill Of Rights matters while others don’t. They have been badgering legalization of marijuana and pointing out so many people who became felons for possessing the “evil weed” but when it comes to clear such and injustice and restoring their rights, are they going to suddenly have a change of heart and say “fuck ’em”? Do you know what a coup would it be to remove the Reefer Vote out of the hands of the Liberals? Do you have any doubt that the new Secretary of Agriculture got there because she knows about crops or because she promised the legalization of pot and people bought it?
This is one strategy. I hope we come up with more and please, being polite against them is not required. Dirty politics are approved.
One last note: We (gun owners) need to stop harping on each other’s Gun Organizations. We need to self-impose a moratorium on the shit-throwing as not to present an image of fragmentation and thus weakness. If politicians think we are not united and we cannot deliver a vote, they will ignore us again.
Power perceived is power achieved.
PS: Moratorium does not apply to Dudley Brown and his scam groups. They need to be politically and economically burn to the ground and salt the ashes.
Reader @MadRaodkill enjoys making my blood pressure go up and give me headaches before I have a chance for my first cup of coffee. So he sent me an article to satisfy his sadistic vein.
First thing was that I hoped they did not mean to say that digital images of real firearms is the same as the physical weapons themselves. But the tone of the article by some Brit writer, puts that in doubt.
Firearms are not part of everyday life in Britain. Apart from the occasional armed police officer scattered across city centers and airports, we rarely even see guns. But despite this, I know a lot about guns.
No, you don’t.
I could tell you the difference between the sound of an assault rifle and a pistol,
Holy shit~! You must be the British reincarnation of John Moses Browning.
or talk about the pros and the cons between using the AK-47 over the UMP.
Why don’t you tell us how many round have you put through them in tactical situations that actually happened out of range of a platter of pizza rolls
Video games have taught me a lot about different weapons,
And I bet all you know about driving a F1 McLaren also came from video games which is why the company is knocking at your door begging for your services. I am not even going into sex.
but should they use exact digital replicas of real-life guns?
It is kind of stupid to have a “realistic” WWII game using rifles that shoot tulips and fart fresh made donuts, isn’t?
After this intro by Bedroom SAS Wannabe, we go after the real issue that chaffs his British rump: To use of the “real” weapons in games, the Game designers pay the Gun Companies for a license to use them and this is EVIL because we need more gun control.
Here is the funny part: Game Designers pay for decorating their games with the images of a real gun because that is what the gamers demand. They commit the sin of actually satisfying the consumer. Imagine that! The consumers are happy, buy the game and tell many people the same and the company makes money.
He goes on to rant against the Second Amendment and Gun Owners, but he then contradicts himself:
Some games do avoid using real-world weapons. Overwatch‘s focus on its heroes makes each unique weapon a reflection of their wielder rather than something designed for anyone to kill with.
Wait, so there is a product that indeed complies with your demands and the dozens of your follower? If there is a market for it, it will sell like hotcakes. But perusing a bit over the game’s info and seeing this weapons, I am pretty sure they do “kill” in the game. Specially the swords which at least in one pic I saw, looks remarkably like a Japanese Katana which, if I am not mistaken, can be deadly. In fact, the author could not walk the streets of England with such device in his hand without the local constables appear with their cute and very real MP5s to stop his sorry chaffed ass.
At the end this is just a long-winded case of a British subject trying to tell Citizens how life is better without guns.
Brenda Snipes, the elections supervisor for Broward County, Fla., who resigned after coming under scrutiny for the way her office handled vote counting during the Nov. 6 election, will receive nearly $130,000 in annual pensions once she leaves office in January, according to reports.
Snipes, 75, already receives a pension of more than $58,000 from her time as an educator and is poised to collect another $71,000 for 15 years as an elected official, the Sun-Sentinel reported.
Departing Broward election official Brenda Snipes stands to receive $130G in pensions: reports
So yes, same as anywhere else, the Teachers’ unions are powerful in Florida, specially when they have one of them rigging elections.
Broward Elections and Broward’s School Board need some serious clean up. Will the Republican Governors have the stones to do it?
It is not a long article explaining why this whole killing and mistreating of non-Muslims is really a recent thing. The author pretty much blames the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini for starting the whole thing in 1989. Basically the extreme Islamic thing is not even thirty years old for this senior fellow of the Cato Institute.
Except history is a quirky thing. You see, the Prophet Muhammad dies in Media in Anno Domini 632 and by AD 711, just 79 years later, the Muslims were invading what is now Spain and subjecting is habitants to death if they did not swear allegiance to Islam or they could pay a recurrent “fee” to remain “free” or simply become slaves.
So, unless they want to revise the article and say that in 79 years the Islamic Jurisprudence went for Kumbaya My Allah to Just another bunch of assholes exercising power via religious fiat and military power, I have to say that Cato Institute is looking for a place in the Liberal Democratic Party table.
The Libertarian Movement has died. It is now a Zombie for Hillary 2020.
